WATCH: “Investing in the Environment” – an eNCA interview with FFSA co-ordinator David Le Page

Fossil Free South Africa co-ordinator David Le Page, was invited to be interviewed on news channel eNCA to discuss fossil fuel divestment in South Africa.

“What we ask as a first step when it comes to divestment is for companies to withdraw investments in the top 200 publicly listed oil, gas and coal companies in the world….we would then like to see as much of that capital as possible moved into renewable energy and other sustainable investments.”

We are a network of South Africans calling for divestment from fossil fuels – and restorative reinvestment in sustainable energy – to stigmatise fossil fuel use, accelerate sustainable system change, help slow climate change, reduce the financial risks of fossil fuel investments, and so help secure our human rights and common future.
